Okay, okay. You've convinced me that I won't have any trouble carrying the roll through the airport. Guess that's what I was worried about. In time I hope to have a roll that I really have to worry about. Cheers!

Don't feel bad. I just had a nice hit at FW and had a security guard walk me out to the parking garage. I felt a little like a bit of a wuss but I had just finished 4th in the Senior's tourney and there was a big crowd watching and everyone could see me get paid cash by Mike Ward and it was late and I was alone.

Figured better to be safe than sorry.

You didn't cash your 11K for a ticket to the main event [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]. You're playing with house money - let it ride!!

You're about the 4th person who has told me I should do that. But I won't. This is why when you win a satellite they don't give you a choice. Most people would keep the money.

I'm headed to Vegas on Friday. I just stopped by the bank and withdrew 3K for the trip. I will carry it with me also.

I think the easiest/best way (especially if large ammounts of cash makes you uncomfortable) is to get one of those money pouches that goes around your waste under your shirt. They look similar to a fanny pack although they are smaller.

That's my friends and I carried money around. I only brought 4k, but one of my friends brought 20k and that's what he did too. He also put it in his socks cause obviously he didn't have enough room for that many bills.

I agree though, for a person who a year ago thought 100 bucks was a lot of money, walking around in vegas with 10k makes you feel a little uneasy, esp when you're walking back to your hotel at 6 am and some strung out hooker (at least that's the way she looked) follows you walking 5 feet behind you while the streets are completely deserted. Hehe.

Don't take it ou at airport secrity, thats all. It isnj't metal. it isn't illegal. Relax.

Actually the little metal strips inside money are there so that they will set off metal detectors if you have enough of it together. But I would think you would need more than a few thousand for this to happen.
